This Kiwi Flies: June 2008
http://thiskiwiflies.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 12, 2008. It has taken a lot of miscommunication and poor organization to be this delayed but eventually we got to the old peoples home in Artsvanik! Having finally got organized and collected all the necessary bits and pieces together we wandered off…. List as compared to many elderly these guys have a safe secure place to live. There is a little money left over – enough we think to purchase a DVD player, so they can watch old movies etc. Links to this post. Sunday, June 8, 2008. I am sta...

Mark and Sylvia's Adventures. We're now back in New Zealand. We'll try to put some of our more interesting adventures up here - if we're not too busy doing fun stuff! Monday, July 19, 2010. Queen's Birthday Weekend Tramp to Swamp Swamp. It was a while ago now, but at Queen's Birthday weekend Sylvia and I headed up north to the 'Naki to go tramping and check out a part of the country we hadn't really spent any time in before. There were lots of boardwalks and ladders. Including some natural ones. This is ...

Between Christmas and New Year, Sylvia and I went tramping for four days with Neil and Frances. Due to continuing strong westerlies we decided to go tramping as far eastwards as possible - which turned out to be the Seaward Kaikouras. There were also several historic huts. The route we followed for the first t...

From Fish to Water. Everyone knows the time-old tradition of blaming the person who has left for everything that goes wrong so I thought a little bit of culinary bribery would go a long way to offsetting this. I decided on an Orange Roughy cake:. Saturday, June 12, 2010. We both got a bit nauseous after a while, it ...

The Life and Times of KJ. What am I up too, and where am I up too it. Thursday, 25 June 2009. Finally some Mountain Biking that is not Racing. The trail was truly lovely and we took our time admiring the views not to mention the great downhills. One rocked quite literally. It was a Rock Garden Decent lasting about 200m of vertical drop. The Enduro loved it and so did I though a few close moments made me realize how remote we were. Especially being all decked out in XC Garbe and no armor. So in the end af...

The Life and Times of KJ. What am I up too, and where am I up too it. Wednesday, 24 September 2008. Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park. Well this was a great long weekend away seeing some wicked spots with lots of driving, good weather, big mtns, hardcore hilly roads, overheating cars, massive trees and some cool camping. Also managed to see a lovely black bear in a real remote campsite. The canyon itself is much deeper than the Grand Canyon. Up to 8000ft in the deepest spot from river to ridge.

The Life and Times of KJ. What am I up too, and where am I up too it. Thursday, 30 July 2009. Maybe its about time for a rework of the Bible…. In the beginning God created the bicycle, saw that it was good, then went for a nice Sunday ride on the bike lanes He'd made the day before, and they were good, too, because they were new and He had the angels keep them clear of debris. Later, of course, God would get cross and have the flood wash all the good ones away. And the woman saw that the hill was good, s...

Yesterday I just did a 100 mile road ride with Derek aswell as Lee and Eric. Their first big big ride. At lunch in...Fine ...
